‘Unsafe Building’ (The Alarm)

Lead Vocals:Mike PetersLyrics

Declare yourself an unsafe building
Suffer the indignation of your world,
To climb the ladders you've gotta suss out the snakes
Remember your height remember to never look down.
'Cause now you've made your choice you've gotta take your chance
Find a way out now you're
unsafe unsafe
Come out of the cupboard and into the real world
Open the window and let some light into your life
It's dark in the tunnel but keep on coming through
Straight down the line and sure enough you'll see the lights that shine
'Cause now you're young you've got to run you've got to take your chance
Get out you can.
I
I have declared myself unsafe
I have declared myself unsafe
Unsound, unknown, unwanted, unnecessary
I've been condemmed
I'm unsafe
Behind the wardrobe there lies a better life
Burn all your old clothes start again make yourself something new
And the bed you've made no you need not sleep in it
Throw back the covers and make all of your dreams come true
Rebuild your life rebuild your home rethink your values
Rethink yourself right through
I
I have declared myself unsafe
I have declared myself unsafe
Unsound, unknown, unwanted, unnecessary
I've been condemmed
I'm unsafe
And leave behind your bridges burning
Take to hills your time will soon come
Because you're here for a purpose but you'll have to search for it
Whatever it is you have got to decide
'Cause now you're young you've got to run
Don't waste your life don't waste your life.
I
I have declared myself unsafe
I have declared myself unsafe
Unsound, unknown, unwanted, unnecessary
I've been condemmed
Who cares
DECLARE YOURSELF AN UNSAFE BUILDING.

Message from Alarm fan, Tom� I stumbled upon a great little piece of podcasting on iTunes. On the newly posted Rhinocast music podcast on iTunes, there is an episode (#38) about our favorite band, The Alarm. It is done by Bob Lefsetz and based on that letter he wrote a few months back about The Alarm.
